  • 소동물을 대상으로 방사선을 이용한 비임상 연구에서 소동물 선량평가의 역할은 계속적으로 증가하고 있다. 본 연구는 최근 들어 사용 및 연구가 계속적으로 증가하고 있는 3차원 프린터를 이용하여 3차원 소동물 팬텀을 제작하였으며, 제작된 소동물 팬텀을 대상으로 필름계측을 이용하여 감마선 조사 시 소동물 팬텀내 흡수되는 선량을 평가하였다. 선행적으로 3차원 소동물 팬텀 제작에 사용된 재료에서 필름에 대한 방사선의 반응 관계식을 획득하였으며, 방사선치료 시 조직등가물질로 사용되고 있는 bolus와 비교하였다. 0.5 Gy에서 6 Gy까지 감마선을 조사하였을 때, 0.5 Gy의 선량을 제외하고 1% 이내의 작은 차이가 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 제작된 3차원 소동물 팬텀 내에 필름을 삽입하여 5 Gy의 선량을 조사하였을 때, 조사된 선량과 필름을 통하여 계산된 선량과의 차이는 2% 이내의 차이였다. 본 연구를 기반으로 실제 소동물을 대상으로, 3차원 소동물 팬텀을 제작하여 선량을 평가한다면, 소동물을 대상으로 방사선 조사하는 비임상 연구 선량에 대한 신뢰성을 높여 줄 수 있을 것이라 사료된다.

  • The purpose of this study is directly measure and evaluate about absorbed dose change according to nominal energy and electron cone or medical accelerator on isodose curve, percentage depth dose, contaminated X-ray, inhomogeneous tissue, oblique surface and irradiation on intracavitary that electron beam with high energy distributed in tissue, and it settled standard data of hish energy electron beam treatment, and offer to exactly data for new dote distribution modeling study based on experimental resuls and theory. Electron beam with hish energy of $6{\sim}20$ MeV is used that generated from medical linear accelerator (Clinac 2100C/D, Varian) for the experiment, andwater phantom and Farmer chamber md Markus chamber und for absorbe d dose measurement of electron beam, and standard absorbed dose is calculated by standard measurements of International Atomic Energy Agency(IAEA) TRS 277. Dose analyzer (700i dose distribution analyzer, Wellhofer), film (X-OmatV, Kodak), external cone, intracavitary cone, cork, animal compact bone and air were used for don distribution measurement. As the results of absorbed dose ratio increased while irradiation field was increased, it appeared maximum at some irradiation field size and decreased though irradiation field size was more increased, and it decreased greatly while energy of electron beam was increased, and scattered dose on wall of electron cone was the cause. In percentage depth dose curve of electron beam, Effective depth dose(R80) for nominal energy of 6, 9, 12, 16 and 20 MeV are 1.85, 2.93, 4.07, 5.37 and 6.53 cm respectively, which seems to be one third of electron beam energy (MeV). Contaminated X-ray was generated from interaction between electron beam with high energy and material, and it was about $0.3{\sim}2.3\%$ of maximum dose and increased with increasing energy. Change of depth dose ratio of electron beam was compared with theory by Monte Carlo simulation, and calculation and measured value by Pencil beam model reciprocally, and percentage depth dose and measured value by Pencil beam were agreed almost, however, there were a little lack on build up area and error increased in pendulum and multi treatment since there was no contaminated X-ray part. Percentage depth dose calculated by Monte Carlo simulation appeared to be less from all part except maximum dose area from the curve. The change of percentage depth dose by inhomogeneous tissue, maximum range after penetration the 1 cm bone was moved 1 cm toward to surface then polystyrene phantom. In case of 1 cm and 2 cm cork, it was moved 0.5 cm and 1 cm toward to depth, respectively. In case of air, practical range was extended toward depth without energy loss. Irradiation on intracavitary is using straight and beveled type cones of 2.5, 3.0, 3.5 $cm{\phi}$, and maximum and effective $80\%$ dose depth increases while electron beam energy and size of electron cone increase. In case of contaminated X-ray, as the energy increase, straight type cones were more highly appeared then beveled type. The output factor of intracavitary small field electron cone was $15{\sim}86\%$ of standard external electron cone($15{\times}15cm^2$) and straight type was slightly higher then beveled type.
